I'm trying to make a webring, but am stuck on something. Basically what I want is if you were at Site A and clicked a link that sent you to www.mywebsite.com/next.php, that page (next.php) would redirect you to Site B. If you were at Site B and you clicked the same link, www.mywebsite.com/next.php, it would redirect you to Site C and so on. So here's what I have so far:

<?php
$siteID = array(); 
$siteID[0] = 'http://example1.com'; 
$siteID[1] = 'http://example2.com'; 
$siteID[2] = 'http://example3.com';

$siteID = $_GET['siteID'];
$nextsite = $siteID++;
$newurl = 'http://mywebsite.com/next.php?siteID='.$nextsite.'';
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"3; url={$newurl}\">";
?>

So far all that does is refresh next.php. I have no clue how to get the $GET function to know what page you came from and then add one to redirect you to the next one in the array. Any ideas? I'm new at PHP so please be patient with me. =(

well first off this section of code is being complety ignored

$nextsite = $siteID++;

the '++' is only going to work with integers..

secondly this logic is competley off..

why don't you just use

next.php?p=1 

next.php?p=2

next.php?p=3

and so on...

??

then for the code to switch pages..

switch($_GET['p'])
{
 case '1':
     include('site1.php')
break;

case '2':
     include('site2.php');
break;

and so on...
}

if you need to actually switch fully websites then just do a meta redirection

case '1':
echo("<META http-equiv='refresh' content='2;URL=http://www.ASite.com/' >");
break;

Thanks so much, I got it to work. I would have never figured that out myself.
